United States Court of Appeals, Fourth Circuit.

Submitted June 23, 1994.
Decided July 27, 1994.

Appeal from the United States District Court for the Western District of
Virginia, at Roanoke. James C. Turk, District Judge. (CA-94-23-R)
Clifford Wade Epperson, appellant pro se.

DISMISSED.
Before MURNAGHAN and WILKINS, Circuit Judges, and SPROUSE,
Senior Circuit Judge.
PER CURIAM:

Clifford Wade Epperson appeals from the district court's order denying
injunctive relief pursuant to Epperson's requests for a temporary restraining
order, and for appointment of an attorney. We dismiss the appeal for lack of
jurisdiction because the order is not appealable. This Court may exercise
jurisdiction only over final orders, 28 U.S.C. Sec. 1291 (1988) and certain

interlocutory and collateral orders, 28 U.S.C. Sec. 1292 (1988); Fed.R.Civ.P.

54(b); Cohen v. Beneficial Indus. Loan Corp., 337 U.S. 541 (1949). The order
here appealed is neither a final order nor an appealable interlocutory or
collateral order. See Virginia v. Tenneco, Inc., 538 F.2d 1026, 1029-30 (4th
Cir.1976); Miller v. Simmons, 814 F.2d 962, 967 (4th Cir.), cert. denied, 484
U.S. 903 (1987).
2

We dismiss the appeal as interlocutory, and deny Epperson's motions for

appointment of counsel, and for an emergency hearing. We dispense with oral
argument because the facts and legal contentions are adequately presented in
the materials before the Court and argument would not aid the decisional
process.

DISMISSED.
